2 fm Page 2 Monday, January 29, :29 AM FEATURES Your RadioShack TRC Channel Mobile CB Radio provides two-way communications on the citizen s radio band and also lets you tune to local and national weather service broadcasts. This CB is perfect for recreational, business, or emergency use. You can call other people who have CBs at home, in their vehicles, or at campsites, (for example). You can also connect optional equipment to your CB, such as external speakers, or a DC power supply and base station antenna to set up a base station in your home. The built-in 40- channel PLL (phase-locked loop) frequency synthesizer uses a precise frequency reference crystal for reliable and exact tuning. Your CB has these features: ACE (Audio Clarity Enhancer) suppresses noise levels while leaving the signal intact during reception. It enhances the transmission and provides a significant reduction in transmission and reception noise. WX Alert/SAME (Specific Area Message Encoding) warns you of serious weather conditions using visual and audio alarms tailored to the level of weather severity. Seven Preprogrammed Weather Channels let you manually select from ten US weather frequencies to stay informed about current weather conditions as you travel. RF Gain Control prevents overloading due to strong RF signals. Maximum Allowable Legal Power Output gives you the greatest available range. TX Indicator lights to show when the radio is transmitting. Digital Channel Display makes the channel number easy to see. External Speaker Jack lets you connect your CB to an external speaker. Screw-On MIC Connector ensures a secure microphone connection. To use this CB, you need a mobile or base station antenna. Your local RadioShack store has a wide variety of antennas. For more information, see Connecting an Antenna on Page 6. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) does not require you to have a license to operate this CB. However, you must know Part 95 of FCC Rules. It explains the proper operation of a Class D citizen s band CB. We enclosed a copy of Part 95 with your CB radio. We recommend you record your CB s serial number here.

Caution: Never pull on the microphone s cable. CONNECTING AN ANTENNA There are many different types of CB antennas for mobile CBs. Each antenna type has its own benefits, so choose the one that best meets your needs. Your local RadioShack store sells a wide variety of antennas. Note: If you are using this CB as a base station, see Using the CB as a Base Station on Page 7. When you choose an antenna, keep in mind that for the best performance you should mount the antenna: as high as possible on the vehicle as far as possible from sources of electrical noise vertically Once you choose an antenna, follow its mounting instructions. Then route the Cautions: Avoid routing the cable next to sharp edges or moving parts, which might damage the cable. Do not run the cable next to power cables or other radio antenna cables. Do not run the cable through the engine compartment or other areas that produce extreme heat. For maximum range, adjust the antenna s Standing Wave Ratio (SWR) using an SWR meter (not supplied). Follow the instructions supplied with the SWR meter and antenna to adjust your antenna s SWR to the lowest possible value. SWR values of 2.0:1 are generally acceptable, with readings of 1.5:1 or lower being more desirable. 6

9 fm Page 9 Monday, January 29, :29 AM OPERATION Before you use your CB, you should know how to use it effectively and courteously. Common Uses for a CB on Page 12 contains information that will help you get more enjoyment from your CB. Caution: Do not attempt to use your CB without first connecting it to an antenna. RECEIVING TRANSMISSIONS AND SETTING SQUELCH 1. Rotate VOLUME fully counterclockwise 2. Set CB/WX to CB. 4. Turn RF GAIN fully clockwise. 5. Turn on the CB by turning OFF/VOL- UME clockwise. The display lights and the channel appears. Note: The CB sounds an alert if it detects a weather alert signal (see Using Weather Alert/SAME on Page 11). 6. Rotate VOLUME clockwise until you hear a hissing sound. 3. Turn SQUELCH fully counterclockwise. 7. Slowly turn SQUELCH clockwise until the hissing sound stops. Note: To receive very weak signals, turn SQUELCH counterclockwise. You hear noise between transmissions, but you can also hear weak transmissions (those not strong enough to break through a higher squelch setting). If the CB picks up unwanted, weak transmissions, turn SQUELCH clockwise to reduce the CB s sensitivity to these signals. 9

10 fm Page 10 Monday, January 29, :29 AM 8. Turn RF GAIN counterclockwise to decrease the incoming signal strength and prevent overloading. Or, turn it clockwise to receive the maximum possible signal. 9. Rotate CHANNEL to select a channel. TRANSMITTING Note: We recommend you try receiving transmissions before you transmit. 1. To transmit, press the talk button on the microphone. Hold the microphone about 2 3 inches from your mouth and speak in a normal tone of voice. The TX indicator turns on. 10. Adjust VOLUME to a comfortable listening level. 11. To improve communication quality, press ACE. The ACE indicator lights. See Reducing Noise on Page 13 Notes: The ACE circuit does not operate when you select WX. You cannot turn on the ACE circuit while holding down the talk button. 12. To turn off the CB, turn OFF/VOLUME counterclockwise until it clicks. 2. When you finish transmitting, release the talk button. The TX indicator turns off. 3. To turn off the CB, turn OFF/VOLUME counterclockwise until it clicks. LISTENING TO THE WEATHER BAND The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) broadcasts local forecast and regional weather information on one or more of seven channels in the US. We have pre-programmed your CB with all seven of these frequencies. (See Weather Channel Frequencies on Page 16.) 10

11 fm Page 11 Monday, January 29, :29 AM To select a weather broadcast, set CB/ WX to WX, and turn CHANNEL to select one of the frequencies. Alert Type Warning Watch Statement Weather Alert Test and Other You Hear Continuous short beeps Continuous three short beeps Continuous two short beeps Continuous long beeps Slow short beeps Set CB/WX to CB to return to normal CB operation. To stop the alert tones, press ALERT TONE OFF or the microphone s talk button. SAME/ALT continues flashing until you switch to WX. Note: The microphone s talk button does not work when CB/WX is set to WX. Using Weather Alert/SAME When CB/WX is set to CB and the CB is on, it automatically functions as a severe weather warning radio by sounding an alert when it detects a weather alert signal. This is especially useful when your area is expecting severe weather conditions. When your local weather station broadcasts a severe weather alert signal, the CB sounds an alert tone and the radio s SAME ALT indicator lights according to the emergency level encoded in the signal To reduce the alert tone levels for subsequent alerts, hold down ALERT TONE OFF for about 2-seconds. The tone stops and the indicator flashes slowly. If the radio receives a new SAME code weather alert, three low-level, short beeps sound while the indicator light flashes slowly. To return to the full alert mode, press the microphone s talk button or switch to WX. To listen to the weather information after the radio receives an alert, set CB/WX to WX. The SAME/ALT indicator turns off. 11

12 fm Page 12 Monday, January 29, :29 AM Notes: Because of atmospheric conditions, you might encounter times when the signal your radio receives does not contain information relevant to the emergency level of the alert. This is normal. The radio will sound an alert regardless of the channel setting. The CB will not sound an alert while you are transmitting. Caution: If you are in a rural or fringe area, your radio might be triggered by an alert broadcast in one area, but not be triggered if you travel to another area (even close by). To verify actual reception, your radio must receive a test or emergency alert broadcast. In the US, the National Weather Service (NWS) broadcasts a test alert every week on Wednesday between 11 AM and 1 PM. To find out the specific test schedule in your area, contact your local NOAA or National Weather Service office. These offices are usually listed in the telephone directory under US Government, Department of Commerce. COMMON USES FOR A CB Like most activities, CB radio has its customs and courtesies. The following tips will help you get the most enjoyment from your CB. Business Uses Truck drivers and delivery personnel can learn road and traffic conditions and get assistance in locating destinations. A CB is also good company on those long hauls. On construction crews, a CB quickly pays for itself when you are calling for additional materials or coordinating the activities of different work crews. For security officers, a CB is more than a convenience it is a must for both safety and efficiency. Personal Uses Keep in touch with home while driving to work, to the store, or to a social activity. Let your family know you are tied up in traffic or that you will stop by the store on the way home. If you are a two-car (or more) family, CBs are great for communicating with family members while they are in their cars. Contact friends or neighbors find out what s happening or plan a get-together. 12

13 fm Page 13 Monday, January 29, :29 AM Ever have car trouble or run out of gas on the highway? What an assurance it is to be able to call for assistance! Camping, fishing, and other sports are more fun with a CB. Locate a buddy or find out what s cooking back at camp. TRANSMISSION COURTESY Please follow these guidelines of radio courtesy when using your CB. Wait for a pause in someone else s transmission before you ask for a break. If you do not receive an answer to your call after a second attempt, sign off and wait several minutes before trying again. Do not hold down the talk button when you are not talking. (This is called dead keying.) Assist callers with directions, information about road conditions, and any other reasonable requests. MAXIMUM RANGE The maximum range and quality of CB transmissions vary depending on the following conditions: the type and quality of antenna used the height of the antenna s mounting location the higher the antenna, the better the signal s range the surrounding terrain mountains and tall buildings limit the range weather conditions the number of nearby CBs operating on the same channel standing wave ratio (SWR) between the antenna and the CB. Note: Your CB radio s transmission range is generally line-of-sight. REDUCING NOISE The Audio Clarity Enhance (ACE) circuit uses compander (compressor and expander) technology to improve communication quality. The circuit maintains the dynamic range while increasing the signal-to-noise ratio as the gain is automatically controlled according to the input signal level. This results in a reduction in wide band noise. Because your CB is exceptionally quiet, any noise you hear is probably from an external source in your vehicle, such as the alternator, another radio, or spark plugs. You can determine the noise s source by turning off the engine and operating the CB with your vehicle s ignition set to ACC. If the noise is reduced, the problem is in your vehicle s ignition or electrical system. 13

14 fm Page 14 Monday, January 29, :29 AM Here are a few hints to help you reduce or eliminate such noise: Make all CB power and antenna wires as short as possible. Keep the power wires away from the antenna wires. Be sure the chassis ground connection is secure. Replace old ignition wires with new, high-voltage, noise-suppression wires. Install noise suppressors on your spark plugs, or install new spark plugs that have built-in noise suppressors. If problems persist, check your alternator/generator and regulator gauges. You can reduce the noise from these sources by using bypass capacitors at the various output voltage points. Your local RadioShack store has a wide selection of noise-suppression accessories. 14

15 fm Page 15 Monday, January 29, :29 AM USING COMMON 10-CODES Citizen s Band operators have largely adopted the 10-codes for standard questions and answers. These codes permit faster communication and better intelligibility in noisy areas. While not all codes are listed, most of the more popular ones follow: Code Meaning 10-1 Receiving poorly Receiving well Stop transmitting OK, message received Relay message Busy, please stand by Out of service In service 10-9 Repeat message Transmission completed, standing by Talking to rapidly Visitors present Advise Weather/Road conditions Urgent business Anything for us? Nothing for you. Return to base My location is Call by telephone Report in person to Please stand by Can you contact. Code Meaning Disregard last information I am moving to channel Identify your station I will give you a radio check Emergency traffic Correct time is Wrecker needed at Ambulance needed at Please turn to channel Traffic accident at Traffic tie-up at Break channel Unable to copy; use telephone Fire at. Note: Although this table lists the 10- codes meanings in the form of a statement, they can also be phrased as questions (10-6: Are you busy?, 10-20: What is your location?). 15

18 fm Page 18 Monday, January 29, :29 AM CARE AND MAINTENANCE Your RadioShack TRC Channel Mobile CB Radio is an example of superior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for your CB so you can enjoy it for years. Keep the CB dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits. Use and store the CB only in normal temperature environments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices and distort or melt plastic parts. Keep the CB away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature wear of parts. Handle the CB gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage circuit boards and cases and can cause the CB to work improperly. Wipe the CB with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the CB. Modifying or tampering with the CB s internal components can cause a malfunction and might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. If your CB is not performing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance. 18

19 fm Page 19 Monday, January 29, :29 AM REPLACING THE FUSE The TRC-519 s 2-amp in-line fuse helps protect your CB from power surges and short circuits. When replacement is required, use a 2-amp, fast-acting glass fuse, available at your local RadioShack store. Follow these steps to replace the fuse. THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW Your CB might cause TV or radio interference even when it is operating properly. To determine whether your CB is causing the interference, turn off your CB. If the interference goes away, your CB is causing it. Try to eliminate the interference by: moving your CB away from the receiver contacting your local RadioShack store for help If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using your CB radio. 1. Make sure the vehicle and CB are both off. 2. Hold the fuse holder at both ends, push the ends together, twist one end counterclockwise, and pull them apart. 3. Remove the old fuse and inspect its condition. If it is blown, insert a new one of the same type and rating. If it is not blown, reinsert it. Caution: Do not use a fuse with ratings other than those specified here. Doing so might damage your TRC Push the fuse holder ends together and twist one end clockwise. Any adjustments to a CB must be made by a qualified technician using the proper test equipment. To be safe and sure: Never open your CB radio s case. Never change or replace anything in your CB radio. 19
